So…in my neck of the woods many had the first day of school while other had their first day of pre-planning.

What was it for you?

A fellow teacher and friend of mine posted this last night on Facebook, and I felt I needed to share it here.You may have seen variations of this on the web or in one of those emails that tend to end up in your inbox that has been forwarded hither and yon.

My friend tells me she changed a few things here and there to match her own situation.

I say BRAVO!.....and may everyone involved in education from the board office to the bus drivers have a most wonderful year!!!

Hi! Our school starts in 3 weeks, and I can't believe it! My planbook is almost complete through the end of the first quarter, and I won't go farther than that just yet, because you never know! I used to tell my students we'd all learn to be Gumby; I stopped saying that -- it just makes me feel old.

A fun poem for all of us teachers....the parents, however, using this humorous poem:

Twas the night before school started,When all through the town,The parents were cheering.It was a riotous sound!By eight, kids were washedAnd tucked into bed...When memories of homework...filled them with dread!

New pencils, new folders, new notebooks, too!New teachers, new friends...their anxiety grew!The parents just giggled when they learned of this frightAnd shouted upstairs-...GO TO BED-IT'S A SCHOOL NIGHT!
